This also made me laugh:
Phyllis is only pretending to be a man, I'm the real thing. Sit down on my lap and there will be no doubt!
No it's not, not like penis-wise.
Those are the classic Michael slip ups I like to see. The episode has grown on me after about the 3rd time watching it.
I also loved Jim telling Michael, "You can't yell out 'I need this, I need this' as you pin down an employee on your lap".
Upon rewatch, I don't think Wallace is out just yet. Sounds like he's predicting that the senior management will be gone, not that he has been fired already.

Dude, he's married. He's clearly not out yet.
I was finally able to rewatch this and I enjoyed it a lot. Speaking of David Wallace (whom I doubt they will let leave the show) Meredith had a killer line:
"Your wife is a very lucky woman."
Also, has nobody commented on the very suggestive nose of the snowman on the mural behind Phall...Phillis' Santa chair?

A producer's cut of this episode will be released soon. If it made Frame Toby much better, maybe it can make a good episode better too.
So did I. I enjoyed Jim and Pam under the mistletoe. Also, was BJ breaking in the extended scene where Kev gets off of Michael and Michael is walking out the pain in his leg? It looked like he was but I can't tell for sure since I watched it on my iPhone.
I enjoyed Jim's TH where he admits it's weird that he actually cares about his job. It would be cool if they explored this a little more. And lem, I think they were all breaking during that scene with Michael.
I liked the extended scene of Pam trying to set up Oscar and warehouse guy. "We should all go to a concert! Are we still doing that thing where we take new people to concerts?" Also Angela's theory about how the warehouse people are stinking up the bathrooms because they're poorer and don't eat as good food. That's kind of a dick move not to invite the warehouse in the first place. One more thing, I just watched a re-run of Take Your Daughter to Work Day, no exaggeration, I'll bet Darryl's gained 100 pounds since then. I couldn't believe the difference.

The warehouse workers were invited in Christmas Party and Benihana weren't they? It was only last year they didn't get to come upstairs. Yet another reason to hate Moroccan Christmas.
I forgot to mention one of the things that I found funny was Michael, during his hurt, petulant Jesus stint, and his running commentary on the karaoke mic. Especially the part where he said, "Oh, space junk! Dwight's going to be able to build himself a friend." Extra funny knowing it was Michael sending the space junk.
I just watched the Producer's Cut of this episode for the first time and I think it really made it a lot better. Everything flowed really nicely and I thought it was a lot funnier the second time around.
It should be interesting to see how Jim handles working for someone who doesn't know him and personally like him like David Wallace did, going forward.

Yeah, he had great luck with Charles Minor. The dick.

I agree. It would have been another very good Christmas episode if they had released it that way. What are they thinking?
